I live in Eastern North Carolina. I am married husband Gregory. We have 3 daughters, one son-in-law, 5 grandchildren, and 1 great-granddaughter. We live on a farm that has been in Gregory's family for over 100 years. He raises pigs. I love painting, photography, and writing. I studied art my first two years of college then changed majors and studied Special Education. I retired from teaching, and since then, I have been enjoying time to paint. Several years ago, I noticed Barn Quilts on barns while traveling through Pennsylvania and Virginia. I started painting my own Barn Quilts soon after. I enjoy painting in watercolor, acrylics, and oils. Gregory loves the vintage hog signs, and I enjoy painting pigs to go on the new signs we create together. I do the painting of the pigs, and he helps with the design and wording of the signs.
